This simple mod allows the player to terminate conversations quickly and efficiently using a key press, mouse click or controller press.

While mods that do something similar to this already exist, they come with several unique problems, this implementation seeks to solve these:

1) Current mods currently just close all menus, in this mod the NPC will always play their "Goodbye" line

2) Issues that arise from using the CAM command from other mods are not present (Missing sounds, Missing weapon models, Quiet radio)

3) "Say-Once" dialogues will not be skipped, meaning no quests will be broken (100% safe)

4) .ini configurable, the key-bind / controller-bind can be changed to any DirectX scan code as required.

5) Gamepad / Controller support

5) TTW Support

One caveat of this implementation is that if a "Goodbye" option is not currently available (I.e. visible on the UI), the bottommost option is selected in its place. As such it may be necessary to press the key-bind more than once in certain circumstances. This prevents broken quests and ensures conversations are ended safely.

You can use this mod alongside Stewie's Tweaks "Dialogue Number Hotkeys" feature to enjoy the configurability & multiple hotkeys of this mod with numbered navigation.

First, install the latest version of NVSE (xNVSE preferred) & the JIP LN Plugin. Then, simply install via mod manager or manually by dragging and dropping the .esp file into the data folder. Uninstall via mod manager or by deleting the .esp file from the data folder. Configuration of key-binds and modes can be carried out using ConversationKiller.ini

Configuration:

Navigate to Data > Config > Lime > ConversationKiller.ini and open it in a text editor of your choosing.

The following options are available

  • []iMode; Set this to 1 for keyboard support or 2 for Controller support.

    []iKeybind; Set this to a DirectX scan code corresponding to your desired bind .

    []iKeybindAlt; Set this to a  DirectX scan code corresponding to your desired secondary bind .

    []iControllerbind; Set this to an Xbox Controller Button code corresponding to the position on your gamepad iDebug; Enables or disables debug output to the console set to 1 to turn on.

    Once options are set to your liking, simply save the .ini file and launch the game. Changing options will require a reboot of the game.
